Anna R: The lamb sausage, grilled octopus, and the mortadella and broccolini pizza was delishi. Great for groups or a table for 2.
Ms Helene: Buzzing at brunch so good for groups but not quiet catch ups. Tuna nicoise was well presented and tasty but small portion of tuna $19.
Lisa Finn: With how amazing the mezze and appetizer menu is, I could enjoy an entire meal of just starters here and be more than content. The Iron Skillet Shrimp were perfectly seasoned and bursting with flavor.

Edwina McGregor: The duck carnitas tacos are delicious! As are the frozen Margaritas. Big venue, great for groups.

Trixie: Love this place! Sexy vibe. Start w/ the summer vegetable salad. It's delicious & healthy. Then, peeky toe crab & corn fritters, mushroom tacos and salmon entree. The romansco sauce is really good.
The New Yorker: "The unevenness of the menu seems to arise from an impulse to make everything seasonal, even if it doesn’t suit the dish." Read more.
Serious Eats: Modern Mexican from the Jean-Georges Vongerichten team. The pea guacamole and seasonal dishes are the best things on the menu; chicken and rice also stands out.

Eater: The unofficial official First Restaurant of New York. Though its formal dining room is a bit too too for Eater 38 contention, the front room and its seasonal American menu wins. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
